CINCINNATI — Tee Higgins is arguably the most-desired projected free agent on the market this coming cycle and PFF thinks he fits best with another AFC team.
Mason Cameron has the Chargers as Higgins' best fit.
"For the second straight offseason, Higgins will be one of the most sought-after players on the market," Cameron wrote. "Despite dealing with nagging injuries the past two seasons, Higgins erupted in 2024 and earned the highest PFF receiving grade of his career (88.3), ranking seventh among wide receivers.
"The Chargers’ offensive success this season came despite their shallow receiving corps. Projected to own the sixth-most cap space this offseason, Los Angeles can afford to supply Justin Herbert with a dominant outside threat to pair with breakout first-year slot receiver Ladd McConkey."
Cincinnati can sign Higgins and make this a moot point, but it's going to be a lot more expensive than the last two negotiating cycles that left each side with no deal. A second franchise tag would cost the Bengals about $26.18 million and completely take that money away from the 2025 salary cap.
